Madison police broke up a fight between several women outside Osaka House on State Street early Sunday morning.

According to a Madison Police Department statement, the fight occurred on the 500 block of State Street around 1 a.m. MPD arrived at the scene in the middle of an altercation between two groups of women.

The statement said one group of women allegedly thought the other cut in front of them in line outside the bar. Once officers arrived outside the bar, they found several women rolling around on the sidewalk, pulling each other’s hair and punching each other.

A 23-year-old Madison woman suffered a bloody nose and another 23-year-old woman was arrested for disorderly conduct, according the statement.

Another 39-year-old woman left the area without her purse before officers arrived. MPD contacted the woman, who said she was “extremely bothered” another woman tried to grab her wig off her head, according to the statement.

“It obviously was a quite involved fight,” Ald. Mike Verveer, District 4, said. “It was such a large fight for a line to get into a bar and is not very common downtown.”

Osaka House has operated its second floor as a night club almost every Friday and Saturday night. According to Verveer, the restaurant has had problems with its club in the past.

The Alcohol License Review Committee, according to Verveer, separated Osaka House’s liquor license for renewal last summer. He said the house received several noise complaints from adjacent property owners and residents, mainly from the bass in its sound system. Several fights have also taken place in the night club.

None of the women involved were severely injured, Verveer said. He added several extra police officers working overtime on foot early Sunday morning helped to resolve the situation.

“I was pleased there were enough officers on foot who were able to address the situation,” Verveer said.
